Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable?
This guitarhas impeccble craftmanship, personally signed by the person who works at Taylor. See it to believe it, hey man this is a Taylor guitar, top notch quality.
Reliability
How has it stood up over time?
I have had this for only 2 days, only time will tell. It will probably last a lifetime for me since i am not a gigging musician.
General
Your general opinion of this product.
This is the best acoustic guitar i have ever had so far. I am more in to nylon string guitars and had been collecting them. But this one stands out, i have 1970's steel string Morris W-25 i believe it is a Martin D18 or 19 copy and i hd previously thought sounded really good. But this really sounds good, the old i will probably need to sell since i won't be playing it anymore.
Playability and Feel
How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing?
Has a slightly wider neck than my old steel string, very easy and comfortable to play.
Tone
Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin?
Tone is amazing and pristine, shimmering sustain, simply the best i have had so far. My Morris W-25 sounded dull compared to it.
Finish
How did the stain or paint job look?
Finish is plain and simple but perfect NO BLEMISH! just like i want it.
Action
How was the action out of the box?
Honestly, i prefer higher action for acoustic guitars because of the projection and sustain it delivers. This guitar has a low action out of the box and very easy to play on the higher frets, sustain and projection is unbelievable!

Best Guitar Purchase I Ever Made!

I have only had the guitar a month but the quality appears to be top notch. I play everyday and I have only had to tune this guitar a couple of times and its usually just one string that is slightly out of tune, either the low or high E. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because this model doesn't come with a pick gaurd, but that's the only reason.
Reliability
How has it stood up over time?
I haven't really had it long enough to give an honost report of how this will stand up over time; however, the craftsmanship is better than any other guitar I ahve owned over the years, and I have owned alot.

Beautiful guitar with amazing sound! Looks and plays exceptionally well.

Even though its a Dreadnought, it feels amazingly comfortable to play. Not to bulky by any means. Neck is fast and smooth.
Tone
Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin?
This guitars sound was so bright, crisp, and full that I almost threw my other acoustic in the trash can. In fact, I will probably never touch my other acoustic again, so it may still go in the trash.
Finish
How did the stain or paint job look?
Not a blemish. Absolutely beautiful. Would love to be able to keep this on display, but keeeping it in the case is a better option to ensure it lasts a lifetime.
Action
How was the action out of the box?
A lot of people complain that they need to adjust the action right out of the box, but this guitar's action was absolutely perfect right out of the box. It has alsightly wider neck than my old acoustic and I was alittle concerned about that, but with the action being perfect, the wider neck makes picking and chord changes so much easier that I was shocked.
